Aleksi Himanen entered the day as the chip leader after starting the day with 303,000 in chips. After an initial surge of chips early on in the day to push his stack north of 400,000, his fortunes changed and he began bleeding chips.
His final demise began when Stefanita Fechete jammed from the small blind for about 200,000. Himanen tanked for a short time from the big blind before he decided to call and put his remaining stack of around 120,000 at risk.

Andrei Tudose opened to 18,000 from the cutoff before Ionut Decher three-bet to 55,000 from the button. The action folded back to Tudose who four-bet jammed for about 220,000.
Decher, who had his opponent covered, went into the tank for several minutes and appeared to be counting off some chips. Eventually Decher decided to fold and Tudose got a big boost to his stack without seeing a flop.
